Are you sure there was a B747 in HUY as I don`t think runway is anywhere near long enough

Leaving issues such as crosswind limits etc. aside: KOI and LSI have 1.428m and 1.500m runways. LCY has 1.508m and has seen ER3 ops by Jetmagic and Luxair. So just looking at the runway length, it should be doable for sn ER3 .For the ERJ145EP, takeoff field length TOW for 400nm, full PAX, ISA, SL is 1.410m, for MTOW it is 2.000m+. So it really depends what you are looking for, how much wear and tear you are willing to accept etc. etc., but generally it does not look as if an ER4 could be operated from LSI/KOI in an useful way.

A few weeks later we were taking off for Glasgow late in the evening and hit a gull as we were about ready to lift off, I think it was on the other runway, but we managed to stop. Luckily the Aberdeen charter had not left and I think we all got on it. We missed the train home from there, but no one was complaining. They got us on the BA flight in the morning. |
The Stornoway div was a Pan Am A310 from memory. |
In 2016, Airbus did proving flights to/from SYY with an Airbus A350 so that must have been the largest widebody ever to land there.
In 2001, an AA 767 diverted to SYY because of an medical emergency. Pan Am diversion (mechanical issue) was in 1990. Problem in those cases: No steps available for a widebody. |

Any idea how many more Embraers are to transfer to Loganair? Also, Glasgow to Dusseldorf starts at the end of this month. There was also supposed to be a further two Embraers transferring to Loganair for summer 19 anyway. Plus with the Southend flights being announced, a would suspect further aircraft will be required for these services. |

I imagine a few more aircraft will transfer over. They will require one for Newcastle, when those flights begin later this month.

Plus with the Southend flights being announced, a would suspect further aircraft will be required for these services. Tomorrow they start Esjberg and Oslo from ABZ. They have one aircraft in ABZ already and an extra one in INV. However they have a flight from Bristol in the morning that looks like it will do the Monday flight to Esjberg this week. For the rest of the week the one aircraft will cover both routes as Oslo is later in the day. I wonder if the aircraft at INV will reposition to Bristol today or if they have another ready to release. Edit: They have an 1805 from ABZ to Bristol tonight so could use the spare one from INV tomorrow. |
Did DAT start Esjberg-Aberdeen?
|
Just answered my own question by looking at the ABZ thread. Will be interested to see who comes out on top.

Loganair are also up against SAS on the Oslo route. It's a hard game.

Time for Loganair to set up a subsidiary company using aircraft chartered from the parent. It can be called 'British Midland Airways'.

Does anyone know of LM are going to continue to operate the Airbus corporate shuttle flights beyond the end of March. If they are does this contract require 2 aircraft to operate it or can it be operated by 1 aircraft

I got that wrong, they are using the Norwich aircraft for EBJ on Mondays. The one that overnights at Bristol on Sunday night comes up to ABZ and then does Oslo. It appears that there is a spare aircraft at INV for now.

Are the crews used to operate LM’s aircraft that nightstop at DND, EDI, KOI and LSI based at these stations? Also does anyone know if LM went through with the recruitment of crews for Carlisle last year when the routes were announced the first time round?. What happend to the if they were recruited?. Where they put on hold?. |
